Securing a disc in a vertically mounted drive

Attention: Do not use force or insert foreign objects to open the tray. If your tray does not open when you press the Eject button, see “Manually ejecting a disc” for more information.

Securing a disc in a vertically mounted drive

The drive has four retainers molded into the loading tray for vertical mounting operation. To insert a disc, place it in the lower two retainers before closing the tray. To remove a disc, open the tray and lift the disc from the two lower retainers.

Manually ejecting a disc

If you press the Eject button and the tray does not slide out, turn off the computer and straighten a large paper clip to form a tool, as shown in the illustration. The straightened end must extend at least 45 mm (1.8 in.). Insert the extended end into the manual-eject hole on the front of the drive. Push the paper clip until the tray opens. Gently pull out the tray until you can remove the disc.
